George Zimmerman Was An Agitator For Racial Justice

This sort of blows up the narrative. Unfortunately, doctored 911 (NBC) calls and fuzzed out video (ABC) are more likely to make it on the news than this nugget.

“You will recall the incident of the beating of the black homeless man
Sherman Ware on December 4, 2010 by the son of a Sanford police officer.
The beating sparked outrage in the community but there were very few
that stepped up to do anything about it. I would presume the inaction
was because of the fact that he was homeless not because he was black.
Do you know the individual who stepped up when no one else in the black
community would? Do you know who spent tireless hours putting flyers on
the cars of persons parked in the churches of the black community? Do
you know who waited for the church-goers to get out of church so that he
could hand them flyers in an attempt to organize the black community
against this horrible miscarriage of justice? Do you know who helped
organize the City Hall meeting on January 8, 2011 at Sanford City Hall??
That person was GEORGE ZIMMERMAN.” – from a letter to Turner Clayton of the Seminole County NAACP written by “a concerned Zimmerman family member”

About Me

I was born in Tombstone, Arizona, but moved to California in 1959 when labor strikes at the copper mines devastated the Arizona economy. I've been moving north ever since. Pullman is as far north as I care to live and I'm looking toward reversing the drift.
